How do I use PDFBox with Asp.Net for parsing pdf files with c#?

I recently downloaded PDFBox, and I am trying to figure out how to parse pdf files with it in Asp.Net to no avail, in fact, I don't even know where to start. Has anyone been able to do this in asp.net (C# preferrably)?

Is there any other ways to parse text out of a PDF in Asp.Net?

  Thanks for your time and happy code!!

  StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter(txt_out, false); try { sw.WriteLine(); sw.WriteLine(DateTime.Now.ToString()); PDDocument doc = PDDocument.load(pdf_in); PDFTextStripper stripper = new PDFTextStripper(); sw.Write(stripper.getText(doc)); } catch (Exception ex) { Response.Write(ex.Message); } finally { sw.Close();
